During large family gatherings (e.g. Thanksgiving and Christmas), my Grandpa and Grandma always tell everyone that we can talk about any topic except one — POLITICS.

I've been playing with a big band (17 bandsmen and 2 singers) for five years now, and never once has the subject of politics arisen.

Never talk about politics or religion is a dumb idea. Truth can only win when brought out and into the public forum of ideas. There is no more important arena for truth to triumph than in politics and religion. People need to grow up and learn how to discuss and even debate important ideas without fighting. Look where this idea of keeping politics and religion out of the public forum has taken our Country. Down the tubes! Satan smiles as we keep quiet.
